The Big Question: First or Third

[Orion]

I actually read that some people see third person limited and third person omniscient different to how I do. Some say limited means writing in third person but only from one point of view for the whole book (eg. Harry Potter) and that third person omniscient is the head hopping style (which I write and prefer). The next level up from that is universal omniscient or something similar where the narrator knows all (eg. little did John know he would meet that same guy again tomorrow).
